Alkyl halide reacts with an alcoholic solution of ammonia to give a mixture of:
- $1^{\circ}$ and $2^{\circ}$ amine
- $1^{\circ}, 2^{\circ}, 3^{\circ} \&$ quarternary
- $1^{\circ}, 2^{\circ} \& 3^{\circ}$ amines
- $1^{\circ} \& 3^{\circ}$ amine
Solution
$\mathrm{RI} \stackrel{\mathrm{NH}_{3}}{\longrightarrow} \underset{1^{\circ} \text { amine }}{\mathrm{RNH}_{2}} \stackrel{\mathrm{RI}}{\longrightarrow} \underset{2^{\circ} \text { amine }}{(\mathrm{R})_{2} \mathrm{NH}} \stackrel{\mathrm{RI}}{\longrightarrow} \underset{3^{\circ}{ }^{\circ} \mathrm{amine}}{(\mathrm{R})_{3} \mathrm{~N} }\stackrel{\mathrm{RI}}{\longrightarrow}(\mathrm{R})_{4} \underset{4^{\circ} \mathrm{amine}}{\mathrm{N}^{+} \mathrm{I}^{-}}$ ^
